Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

Wu Xingyun: Hahaha, I'm rich!

Li Canghai: The little bamboo is temporarily staying with you.

Wu Xingyun: Little Bamboo, may I use your money?

Lin Zhu: No problem.

Wu Xingyun: You see it now? @Li Canghai

Li Canghai: No, I'll go back to Lingjiu Palace in a few days. I need to see such a great treasure and broaden my horizons.

Lingjiu Palace was originally a temporary palace of the Xiaoyao Sect, so Li Canghai's suggestion to go back was not wrong.

Wu Xingyun: Okay, you haven't been back for decades.

Just as Lin Zhu was about to reach the ancient tomb, a group of people from Tianning Temple arrived, escorting a cart full of gold and jewels.

Then I saw the collapsed Mahavira Hall.

In the treasure room below, Lin Zhu collected all eight golden pillars, and not long after, the place collapsed.

"No, something happened."

The speaker was a fat man, who quickly went inside.

With his true energy flowing throughout his body, he used both hands to directly lift up the collapsed main hall, revealing an empty basement.

All his wealth was gone; he wasn't left with a single penny.

Judging from the appearance, the marks are still very fresh, only a few days old.

The fat man froze on the spot, then wailed, "Beast! Beast!"

He turned and grabbed one of the men by the collar. “Old Tian, ​​didn’t I tell you to keep a close watch around here? How come someone was able to steal the treasure here? You should know that this is the wealth that our organization has accumulated over generations.”

"Master Huo, I'm innocent!" Old Tian quickly begged for mercy. "Our hundreds of spies never approach this place, and we've never seen a large number of people around here. Such a huge treasure couldn't have been transported without a large number of people. Otherwise, you can go ask Old Hu, Old Miao, and Old Yuan."

"Am I seeing a ghost?" the fat man roared in fury. "Do you know what kind of money this is? Thirteen billion taels of silver, a fortune worth a full thirteen billion taels of silver. That's nearly thirty percent of my wealth, Huo Xiu's wealth, and the An family's wealth. Three generations of hard work, three generations of hard work! And just like that, thirty percent is gone."

Moreover, this 30% accounts for a large portion of their working capital.

Horthy wanted to tear the person who stole the treasure apart alive.

If it weren't for his Grandmaster-level strength, he would probably be dead from a heart attack by now.

An Yunshan was still hiding in the capital, hoping to find an opportunity to rescue An Shigeng, but he never had the chance.

If he knew about this, he would probably go crazy.

Now that his son is imprisoned and most of his wealth has been seized by the imperial court, he has taken the lion's share of the treasures in Tianning Temple.

Meanwhile, inside the palace, the emperor received a person.

"This humble subject, Shen Wansan, greets Your Majesty."

"Shen Qing, no need for formalities. I summoned you here to ask how much silver the merchant guild can currently provide?"

"Your Majesty, aside from necessary expenses, the merchant guild can provide 200 million taels of silver. If Your Majesty wishes to use it, this humble subject can transport it to the capital and deposit it within a month."

Shen Wansan was a legendary merchant who, with the backing of the Zhou imperial family, amassed a fortune of tens of billions of taels of silver.

The world is vast, with a huge population, but there are only a handful of major merchants, resulting in a relatively concentrated wealth.

The emperor nodded. "Allocate one billion taels of silver to the capital. This year's snow disaster is quite severe, with damage in various places. It's been hard on you."

Shen Wansan quickly replied, "This humble subject is not suffering. I am willing to do something for the people of this world."

The emperor patted Shen Wansan on the shoulder, "How is my concubine?"

"My mother is in good health, thanks to Your Majesty's concern." Shen Wansan smiled.

"That's good! I'll take you to meet Zhao'er. I hope you'll continue to assist him in the future."

"Yes, Your Majesty," Shen Wansan said, and followed the emperor to see the crown prince.

Outside Tianning Temple, Huo Xiu shouted, "Such a huge treasure, they just stole it, they can't possibly hide it anymore. Go and investigate! I want to tear this person to pieces and grind his bones to dust!"

His anger had reached its peak.

Not far away, two mangled corpses lay by the roadside, killed by him with a single blow, not for any other reason than to vent his anger.

But he was destined not to find anything, as the treasure was now in the Western Regions, a distance of 40,000 li in a straight line.

Southeast of the Qinling Mountains, Lin Zhu lies resting on a tree.

He held a piece of gold in his hand and played with it, sometimes shaping it into a cuboid and sometimes flattening it into a large round disc.

He transformed his true essence into fire, burning away the deadly poison attached to its surface.

The fire was quick, and then the grains were broken off one by one, rolled into small golden beads the size of a little finger, and stored in the storage space.

That's how he got here all this time.

Just as he was absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, a small, round little creature somehow clumsily approached him.

Then, wiggling its bottom, it started climbing the tree, but couldn't make it up, and started whimpering.

Lin Zhu noticed it and looked over; it was a black and white ball.

It looks like it's only been about three months, and the child is still unable to take care of themselves.

"Little guy, what's wrong?" Lin Zhu jumped down.

"Waaah, waaah." The little dumpling cried anxiously, tugging at Lin Zhu's clothes and trying to drag him away.

Its strength is small, but its determination is great.

In the frigid snow, such a small creature was able to find bamboo groves, which shows that it is no ordinary little dumpling.

Lin Zhu picked it up and channeled his boundless true essence into it to warm its body.

He was afraid that if he waited too long, the adorable little thing would die.

The little dumpling cried out loudly, twisting its body in one direction.

Lin Zhu understood its meaning and ran away with it.

We arrived deep in a bamboo forest, only to find it utterly destroyed, with large swathes of bamboo collapsed.

At the end of the bamboo forest, there is a small hill, and a cave more than three zhang (approximately 10 meters) high has been carved out of the hill.

The little dumpling screamed inconsolably, urging Lin Zhu to go inside quickly.

Lin Zhu smelled blood and looked to the side. There was a leopard that was two zhang long, with its neck crooked, its spine broken, and its throat bitten off.

It is clear that its rivals should not be underestimated.

Looking at the cave again, I judged that the mother bear must be injured, or even seriously injured and dying.

He went inside and heard faint breathing, the kind that sounds like someone on the verge of death.

The little dumpling quieted down, afraid of disturbing its mother.

Lin Zhu looked closely and saw that it was a huge black and white ball, an extra-large one.

It was over two zhang long, with its furry black and white skin damaged by leopard claws, especially on its abdomen, where there was a gash more than two meters long, from which the blood had turned black.

It must have been a long time since the injury, at least three days.

It has survived for three days and is still so large; this must be a mythical panda.

Comparing its size to that of the giant golden ape in Zhongnan Mountain, Lin Zhu roughly judged the strength of this black and white ball of fluff to be close to the peak of martial arts. It must be due to its extraordinary bloodline and the fact that it had eaten rare flowers and fruits.

The little boy clung to Lin Zhu's clothes, looking at him with teary eyes, as if he knew that Lin Zhu could save his mother.

Lin Zhu rubbed its head. "Don't worry, let me check on it."

He doesn't know medicine, but he has cultivated the complete Longevity Technique and integrated the Three-Part Returning Origin Qi, making him even stronger than the Divine Illumination Scripture in terms of healing.

As Lin Zhu approached the large dumpling, he could feel its breathing quicken.

When Lin Zhu channeled the longevity attribute of the Limitless True Essence to its limit and infused it into its body, it immediately calmed down, and its breathing gradually became steady.

If Lin Zhu had arrived any later, it probably would have died.

After receiving 30% of the Limitless True Essence from his body, the big dumpling came back to life from the brink of death, but was still seriously injured.

Lin Zhu took out three blood bodhi seeds.

The little dumpling forced itself to stay awake, looking at Lin Zhu and then at Xue Bodhi.

A moment later, it stuck out its tongue, rolled the contents into its mouth, and swallowed them.

The medicinal effects of the blood bodhi seed take effect immediately upon entering the mouth.

This is the blood of the Qilin, which has been nurtured over hundreds of years by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It contains the power of creation and has immeasurable benefits for a ferocious beast like the Big Dumpling.

So what if I'm seriously injured?

A red light suddenly appeared, and the wounds on the big dumpling's body healed, scabbed over, and fell off at an extremely fast speed.

Before long, even brand new hair grew out.

Then, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged, forming a funnel that poured into the large dumpling's body, a sign that it was about to break through.

"Hungry, hungry, hungry, so hungry."

A female voice echoed in Lin Zhu's mind, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Is that you speaking?"

"It's me. I'm about to break through. Please feed me, Master."

[Ding! Lin Zhu has successfully tamed the pet Tai Chi Giant Barbarian. Pet space is opening... %&*￥@￥%&, insufficient merit, insufficient energy, opening failed. That wretched Lin Zhu!]

Lin Zhu's face twitched; he was speechless at the chat group.

Lin Chaoying: Little Bamboo, what have you done now?

Lin Zhu: I rescued a large iron-eating beast. Enough talk, now I need to feed it.

After sending the message, he walked out of the cave and used the Fire Scale Sword to cut open the leopard's fur, peeling it off completely.

This sheet is so big, if someone processes it, it can be made into a leopard print bed sheet.

Forget about overcoats; they're too tacky, making you look like a bandit.
